The Trill Seekers Flute Choir will be presented in concert Sunday, November 11 at 3:00 P.M. as part of the monthly Sanctuary Series at High Street United Methodist Church, 230 E. High Street in downtown Springfield. Although there is no admission charge, a freewill offering will be taken to help support the series and a reception will follow the concert in The Commons at the church.

The Trill Seekers Flute Choir is a member of the University of Dayton New Horizons Music Program. This unique program, designed for adults, was initially founded at the Eastman School of Music by Professor Emeritus and still active leader Dr. Roy Ernst (also a flutist). There are now approximately 250 New Horizons Music Programs world-wide

The Dayton chapter was started by Dr. Linda Hartley, UD Professor of Music, who founded and has directed the program there for almost 20 years. The program partners with the University of Dayton music education majors who offer music instruction as an extension of their teacher education fieldwork.

The Trill Seekers perform traditional and classical music arrangements, many arranged by choir member Mike OBrien. The program will include Teddy Bear’s Picnic, When I’m 64,Canon in D, Ashokan Farewell, and a medley of patriotic tunes to honor veterans in a tribute to Armed Forces Day.
